By 2008, illegal aliens will be allowed to vote.

As a result, Democrats can no longer rely on the country's 42 million Hispanic residents as a natural part of their base.

Like they have done with the Black vote for decades. "Vote for us and we will make your life better". Yeah, right!

Of course, lately, the Republicans seem to be taking for granted their base also, particularly the Christian base.

We are packed to the gunnels with ILLEGALS and our government is pandering to them because of their large numbers?

I'm living in a parallel universe....

I'm waiting for the headline "GOP Risks Conservative Votes On Immigration", because unlike this article it would be based in reality.

Pardon my ignorance, but do we even have Hispanic votes anyway?

I'm skeptical that all latin/hispanic people are on the open border side. Supporting the GOP is all for not if you don't support a secure border. This issue isn't small, and must be accountable. Losing support because of this doesn't cause fear in me, but losing out on making legislation does.

The pro illegal immigrant supporters are in general black hating racists. The GOP should use immigration to split Blacks from the Democrat party.

Certainly. At least three out of every ten.

It stands to be a real winner for us.

Yes and it will hurt when we lose both of them.

From the California Elections and Voter Information web site:

"Question: How can a person prove his or her citizenship?

Answer: California Elections Code § 2111 states, "A person may prove he or she is a citizen by his or her certification under penalty of perjury on the affidavit of registration (for voter registration purposes only)."

Do you really believe that is a safeguard?

all hispanics are not the same

the same folks who tout diversity claim homogeneity when it comes to hispanics or blacks

the only thing uniting hispanics is a knowledge of Espanol
